interview
RINA GOLDBLOM
"At first I was born, into the pure love of two young people' in Piotrikow Trybonaski, which was a county above Lodj.
I was born in December 1929 to a young, zion and modern family.
My father was a jewelry artist ad had a jewelry shop.
He loved all man, and had both Christian and Jewish friends.
He was an athlete in Maccabi, he rode the bicycles, and was a member of an athletes movement.
In 1932. he left for a bicycles journey from Poland to falestina, and stayed there for the first Maccabia.
As a child, I loved to look around in his shop, and see the works that he made, since my father was also a painter and made special art.
My father was also a part of a number of family generations who worked with art.
In 1936 my brother Menahem was born, and everybody was very happy.
On our vacation we went on a two months trip to .
My mother would prepare our cloths and dancing shoes months before.
I don't know much about the Jewish community in the town, because I was only ten when the war started.
The war started in September 1st, at 5 AM.
On a Friday morning there was a bombing, and the Germans invaded Poland.
Soon after there was the first Ghetto of Poland.
I worked in the ghetto and knitted for the Germans.
In the ghetto we studied illegally , we had nothing, our good life were stopped.
My father worked in Bogay (a factor for fabric who turned into a wood factory in the war), in his profession.
In September 1942, people from close towns were sent away, and they never came back.
My father decided with my mother that we need to leave,
with the help of my father's friend-Valenski, who worked at the print and had original papers.
We made certificates on the name of Novokovski.
I was named Yarina Novokovska.
Then we started to travel as Christians.
My mother and I were blondes, so we looked Christians, but my brother had black hair and he looked Jewish, so we were scared that we might get caught.
On Sunday's when everybody would go to church we got away from it with an excuse.
My father stayed in Bogay, and our only connection to him was through a friend name who transferred letters between us for 8 months.
In February 1942 we got a letter from azio crogulaski, he said the was going on a vacation and he would write to us when h gets back, and my mother understood that something happened to dad and she wanted to get back to ghetto piotrikow.
We escaped a few weeks before Jews were sent to Treblinka in groups.
We wanted to get back to the ghetto in piotrikow but we didn't know what was happening there, and we couldn't get back because the Germans were guarding everywhere with dogs, and we weren't allowed to walk in the streets.
We arrived a day after Purim in 1943 to Chekastova.
My mother and I got into the ghetto and my brother hid because there weren't any children in the ghetto any more for over three months, and I looked tall so they didn't know I was only 14 years old.
My mother found someone she knows who helped us, he got me and my mother work in a gun factory, and my mother and I worked on shifts and took care of my brother who was hidden in a little room.
We didn't know what was happening and my mother wanted to return to piotrikow, and we decided u will go back with my brother.
After a few months I arrived to piotrikow to find out what had happened to my father and our family.
I found a relative of my mother and an uncle of my father there, but the rest had been sent to Treblinka ,and were murdered there.
I found out that my father was executed in the forest with 37 other people because he had given them certifications to release them abroad and a woman who was tortured told the germens about it.
Some people we know helped us and I got back and brought my mother, and we got back to piotrikow in June.
We were illegal, and we didn't have work, so we were sent to a concentration camp in Blijin.
We were there a month, and we had some things from that we had hidden with us.
Me and my mother worked in sowing 12 hours each day , and my brother was 6 years old then.
In Blijin my brother and I got the typhus , and later my mother got it too.
We hilled fast, but my mother's disease complicated and she lied in the recovery room, and couldn't even talk.
A doctor named Dr. vinapal who was Jewish and also a friend of my husband, had a pharmacy in town and he helped my mother along with his friend Yurik mitarnovich , and she got well.
After 13 months we were transferred to Auschwitz.
My brother was 6 .5 years old and was already considered a man, so he was transferred on the train with the other man who took care of him.
When we got there, we were striped and told to organize our things well because we were going to take a shower.
We knew that those who take a shower didn't come back, but we didn't have a choice, so we got into the showers, but luckily we also got out.
The Bafo- a Jewish worker of the Germans, hid my brother as a girl and sent us pieces of bread.
After 3 months that she kept him, she brought him to us and said she can't keep him anymore because the war was coming to an end.
My mother thanked her, then she turned to me and said –"you are the oldest one, you will go to falestina because it is a small country and I will be able to find you there-that will be our country.
After a day or two they took my brother.
After a short period they took my mother too, and I was left alone in Auschwitz".
At this point, Rina became very emotional and asked to continue the interview another time.
